The idea is not to hire a programmer but rather to provide visibility and a bonus incentive for involvement. Feel free to suggest tickets you would be willing to take on yourself.

I agree with the idea, but I think we should make 2 things clear before we start this:

- Are official devs eligible for the bounties, or is this just to bring in new blood?
- How do we decide how much to reward each ticket?


To be blunt: I would not mind receiving some bounty rewards. :) However, I feel like it would be disingenuous if I started arguing about offering a bounty for a ticket and then collect it myself.
